Hello 

I was  lately reading a lot about Asperger since I heard it from someone and i was just curious to understand what it was, etc. And i feel highly identified, as a kid and now. I don't even know if I should get a real diagnosis but i really want to know if I have it. I would feel relieved. Because maybe my mind is making this up. 

Can I talk to anyone about this?

Thanks you so much

  • Search for your local adult autism team. If you can find it, you may also find that your area allows you to self refer. If not, speak to your GP and they can refer you. 

    I thought that I'd get turned away by the GP and laughed at for thinking something so silly, but they were very supportive and I was actually able to self refer in my area and my GP encouraged me to still take this route even though I'd spoken to her. It meant my referral form was in my words which I think helped.
